Yeah but surely thats too small a sample size considering he was at AFCON then injured. He has been back since when, March?
But you have to take all the factors. He hasn't quit the national team, he will be playing at the next AFCON at the age of 33. Would you not expect that muscle injuries will be more likely than now, considering the way he plays? For us, he also changed his game to minimize defensive runs to hang more toward the front. He was also the player who gave us the speed from counters, especially from corners or set pieces in our end; now that's practically gone. Sure, he's currently our most efficient player, but huge factors for that is that all the play goes through him and he takes the penalties. Take that out, and Salah no longer looks the exceptional player we are used to associate him with. IMHO, the present version of Salah is replaceable, and it should be done. He has the class, but no longer the body that supports that.
